The Mission of Crazy Love Africa is to serve, restore, empower, and strengthen vulnerable women in Uganda. As a result, we will touch the children in their care, through education, community, and sustainable job creation. By working alongside women as global sisters, we create change, while addressing inequality, strengthening families, and communities.
Our programs focus on how to give single mothers in Uganda the opportunities and resources to build sustainable, healthy lives. With your support we are able build confidence, address inequality while promoting economic and social transformations.
Micro-Business Grants: Our Crazy Love Africa sisters are encouraged to follow their dreams and use their gifts when starting their business. Micro-business grants are an effective strategy for alleviating poverty and empowering women.
Youth Sponsorship: Crazy Love Africa provides educational sponsors for all children for the women who participate in our program. Our students attend nursery school through vocational and secondary schools, and university. A sponsor is identified for each youth to pay their school fees. Sponsors also have the opportunity to correspond with their sponsored youth throughout the year.
Sisterhood Support Circles: We train and support our sisters within community cooperative groups. The sisterhood support circles meet twice monthly and create both a safe community for single mothers and a model to promote motivation and success. Our Support Circles also provide training by health and business professionals, artisans, and counselors. Community truly is the key to unlocking the strength, courage, and hope in every woman!
Artisan Fair-Trade Crafts: Crazy Love Africa has tapped into the artistry and industriousness of the extraordinary women of the Toro Kingdom in Uganda. They make beautiful, colorful jewelry, baskets, and textiles. Their artisan goods are truly individual works of art. We use the revenue from the sales to fund all our programs. In this way, the women are using their skills and hard work to help pull themselves out of poverty. Crazy Love Africa provides artisan training to all of our sisters to learn new artisan techniques and skills.
